Actually Levar Burton was a really good actor. When he was given the part of Geordi on Star Trek he decided the only way to do Geordi justice was to actually cut out his own eyes so he would be able to really get into the role. Sadly, it was only after ripping his own eyes out with a Burger King Spork did they tell him that he would be wearing a visor that would enable him to see on the show. Tragic, I know. But then again, Levar was always a little batshit crazy.

Levar actually wrote the lyrics to Reading Rainbow while in a meth induced stupor. He was actually quoted to say that he was high on either black tar Heroin or a cocktail of Vodka, Prozac, and amniotic fluid every time he did Reading Rainbow. No one ever found out where he got the amniotic fluid. It is rumored that he would go around at night and sneak into the rooms of expecting mothers and drain some fluid with a McDonalds straw. Experts have speculated that 43% of all supposed alien abduction cases can actually be attributed to Levar Burton's late night escapades.
Now THAT is good nonsense
